Meghan Markle’s gorgeous blue and white outfit at the women’s Wimbledon final on July 14 was more than just a fashion choice, it was a way to honor her new hubby Prince Harry! Find out why here!

Meghan Markle, 36, looked amazing when she stepped out with sister-in-law Kate Middleton, 36, on July 14 to attend the women’s Wimbledon final and it turns out her outfit had more to it than meets the eye! The Duchess of Sussex chose to wore a blue and white striped button down shirt by designer Ralph Lauren with stylish white pants for the public outing and although many don’t know this, Ralph has a special connection to the way Meghan met her prince. Back in 2016, Meghan attended Wimbledon for the first time, which is around the same time she met Harry, and the reason she got to attend the huge event was because she reportedly went as the designer’s guest. It doesn’t end there either. Violet von Westenholtz, a lifelong friend of Harry’s, works in PR for Ralph and she allegedly played matchmaker for the royal couple!

Seeing as how the legendary fashion icon was a fateful link for Meghan’s now royal life with Harry, we can definitely understand why she’d choose to wear his clothes for the event. The sweet gesture only adds to the already seemingly wonderful and close marriage Meghan and Harry have together. They may be newlyweds but they’ve been making a lot of public appearances together in the past few weeks and each one seems to be helping Meghan adjust to being a royal more and more.

In addition to stepping out with Harry, Meghan made her first appearance alone with Queen Elizabeth back on June 14 for the ceremony honoring the opening of the Mersey Gateway Bridge. She shared smiles and seemed to have a good demeanor at the event so we’d say she’s fitting in well! Since Meghan appears to be a likable person, we’re not surprised all the royals already seem comfortable and happy around her. We can’t wait to see what other public events she takes part in soon!
